En practice the 'cap 4 Wi be heated in any Suitehie way to avoid soiling it, or the hair with which it comes in Contact, and heet so imparted to the heir when confined between the oorruvetions of the two caps 1- end 4, the ,heir wil be given a more or less permanent waved set.

The heetdnipertinvf cap 4 may be heated in any suitehle wey, hut, to avold all chance of soiling the cap or hair, I provide a heating cone having corrugetions similar to those heretofore described, the cone being/of such ieee diameter than the vheating ca 4 that, when the two are nested, their surinees will he in Contact. This heating cone is preferably, though not necessarily,l made of somewhat thicker metni than the oeps 1 end fi, to the end that it will stand repeated l1eatings over a gas jet or otherwise Without detriment, and impart its heat to the heating cap 4t, and mey be provided et base with e, sider 6a to rest upon e smell ges heater, es s own.

The primary or vided at the e, -X with en opening 7 within which surplueege of hair may be tucked dure ing the operation of waving, and the heating oep 4 is provided with n handle 8, preferably non-conductive, by which it may be manipulated, and is also provided at top with a ventieting o `ening 9 to' avoid steaming hair that tney e moist or oii In practice the heating cone 6 is laced over n. ges heater 10, or other source o heat, and the heating cap 4 nested upon it to deby theprotective cap 1 is pro# lll( ' upon the head as in Fig. 1, and the hair drawn up over it, as in Figi. 2, the surplusage of hair going to make up e coil being tucked into the opening 7 at the apex'ol the cap.l The heating cap 4, previously heated, is then pressed down upon the hair so drawn over the primary cap 1, thus pressing the hair in between the matching corrugations of the two caps which results in giving a wave to the hair, and applying heat thereto to make the wave a more or less permanent set, ac cording to the hair operated on, and that without danger of singeing, or of soiling the hair with smoke deri-ved from a gas heater.I

As so far described, the device is adapted only to wave the hair from a line extending along the brows to the nape of the neck, and to the extent of its corrugations at top, being designed with special reference to the presc nt style of hair drcssin Where the hair is massed on the crown of t e head in a pomparlour style.

To adapt the device for Waving the hair from the crown downward', the hair is passed up through the somewhat elongated openilnT 7 in thel cap and then smoothed down over the outer surface thereof, the heating cal 4 being then pressed down upon it, as be 'ore described, the corrlwations bein shaped to suit that particular style, i' necessary. This st le of wave relates to hair parted in the mi dle and drawn or draped down about the head and over the forehead.

This device is of especial advantage, as, aside from the saving of hair-dressers charges, there is effected a great saving of time, from the fact that the device may be used at the home, or in lodgings, thus saving the time in going to and from the hairdressers, and from the further fact that the, wav-` mg operation 1s effected much more quickly i than with the hand implements heretofore in the market, of which I have knowledge.

I claim: i'

1. A device for Waving the hair on the human head,` comprising a primary cap o.c metal having eorrugations, and an o ening at top; and a heating cap of metal liaving cap, and )rovided with a Ventilating opening and handle. l

2. A device for waving the hair of the human head, comprising a primary cap of metal :having corrugations, and, an opening at top, and provided with a lining; and a heating cap of metal having corrugations to match those of the rimary cap, and provided With a venti ating opening and a handle.

3. A device for Waving the hair on the human head, comprisinga primary cap of metal having corrugations, and an o ening at top and a heating cap of metal lliaving corrugations to match those of the primary cap, and provided with a Ventilating opening and non-conducting handle.

' 4. A device for waving the `hair on the human head, comprising a primary cap of metal having corrngations, and an opening at top; andv a heating cap of metal having corrugations'to match those of the primary cap, and )rovided with a Ventilating() )ening and hand e; and a heating cone ot slightly less diameter than the heating cap, and having similar corrugations.
